Answer 1

Answer:

Chlorine is a stronger oxidising agent than iodine (the reduction potential of Cl2 is more positive than that of I2, therefore reduction is more feasible, assuming standard conditions in aqueous solution) and is more reactive (as the reactivity of the halogens decreases as group 7 descends) so it will displace iodide ...
